Telescoped cylinders pinch the mirror point, and under them grows a sylph-like stock of sea-ferried nutwood.
Weapon Class: Bows & Rifles
Accuracy: High
The laser rifle is a mid-tier rifle that is powered by energy cells and has reasonably good penetration and damage potential.
Obtaining
The laser rifle can be:
- Found as random loot in mid-tier or high-tier zones or occasionally equipped by random creatures.
- Found as a guaranteed loot drop from mercurials, who will also be carrying 3 chem cells[1]. However, note that the mercurial will teleport away from its attacker when it is killed, displacing this loot into a random location in the current zone.[2]
- Crafted with the Tinker II skill, after obtaining the required schematic.
- Disarmed from laser turrets.
- Found held by Hortensa, Iseppa, and Neek, but none of them will part with it willingly.[1]
Considerations
This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.
- The laser rifle occupies a somewhat unimpressive "middle child" role in the progression of rifle-class weapons. Using a lower-tier and more common electrobow (higher accuracy, higher penetration, provides an 8-tile light radius, consumes only half as much power) or a carbine/Sparbine (triple the number of shots per action with similar damage potential, does not require energy cells) is often preferable until the player can find a higher-tier rifle such as the eigenrifle.
